Making irrelevant awards voted on by users, once again. That which sells best (SF, CC) is always bound to win because users voting tend to vote on games they own. So these type of "awards" are basically a pat on the back to the best-selling games, not the best games (although the two aren't always mutually exclusive). Or maybe I'm just bitter that Braid, which I consider by far the best Live game of 2008, only won a single award.
I don't understand how a game that released with a game killing glitch(bye bye save data), one that wasnt fixed for over 4 months, won an award like that.
Glad to see a lot of good games winning. I love XBLA games, short and sweet! I'm upset Bionic Commando: Rearmed or Soul Calibur not getting any sort of recognition, but still all is good :)
I reallly like the XBLA service, can't wait for the spring arcade to show up!
@FlagshipFighter: Yep, Bionic Commando: Rearmed is easily my favorite XBLA game of last year, and it along with Ikaruga deserved far more accolades than they received. I can't see how that spastic looking crappily animated SSFIIHDR won "Best Remake" over BC:R and "Best Graphics" in general.

@Rompehamster: Sigh...missed the days of simplicity. I would much trade any of those "next gen shooters" in for The Simpsons Beat em up or the one with Captain American in it...

Just release the damned thing as is and it will sell better than having to budget a team to redo everything.

I just don't see the point to buy something again if nothing has been done to make it better.
That's just my opinion though.
